I decided to visit this restaurant based on its positive reviews. They offer a selection of English cafe dishes as well as Thai cuisine. I tried the pad Ka prao and red curry, both of which were delicious and reasonably priced at £5.50 for a main with rice. I will definitely be coming back!

Thia place serve the best authentic thai food. Looks very old and rundown from outside but the food is amazing.

Have been here a few times now when we fancy a cheap meal out. It’s not much to look at, a real old school little cafe (think losing team on the Apprentice! that does cooked breakfasts etc throughout the day, however we’ve only been here for the Thai at dinner time. Incredible Thai red curry, and the single best value meal I think I’ve ever had only £5.50 which includes rice. It’s a little old Thai lady that cooks it all up to order in a small kitchen. Amazing place and a real hidden gem, an absolute must if you like Thai food.
